jonathanbull Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 My PODX3 Live doesn't make any sound when I have a guitar plugged in, neither the guitar input nor the aux input produces any sound when a guitar is plugged into it. I've checked the volume on my guitar and the cables(I bought a brand new tested cable just to see). Is there any way around this or has my trusty PODX3 Live finally died?

silverhead Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Check the position of the Line/Amp switch (I think it's called that - or something similar) on the top panel of the X3 Line. If it's in the middle position - not clearly one side or the other - it acts as a mute switch. Undocumented but true! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I'm still having the no sound problem even though I repositioned the Line/Amp switch multiple times. Do you have any other ideas of what it could be?

silverhead Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 A couple of things to try to isolate the problem.... - do you hear sound through headphones? - does the tuner recognize the guitar? - have you checked to make sure the Guitar or Aux inputs are selected for the Tone you are using?

I don't hear sound from the guitar in my headphones though my PODX3 still works as an audio interface/external sound card. Unfortunately the tuner doesn't even come up no matter how long I hold the Tap footswitch(I think it stopped working a few years ago). I have the guitar input selected for both tones on the PODX3.

jonathanbull Posted December 23, 2019 Author Share Posted December 23, 2019 For some reason the problem fixed its self over the weekend. I don't know what to say other than try turning it off and on a few times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
